I'm 6'3" and my BMI range is 148-199. I've been the same height since early high school days and back then I was about 170 and if I turned sideways and stuck out my tongue, I looked like a zipper. Skinny as a rail, and that was at 170. If I weighed 148, it would be ok with the BMI scale, but I have to think you would be able to see every bone in my body. When I was in the army, my weight was right around 200. At that weight, I was bordering on overweight according to BMI. I can't how being super skinny is healthier than having a few extra pounds you can stand to lose if you get sick.
